ENGLISH USERS MANUAL SOLADIN 600

Product description and application

Congratulations for choosing the Mastervolt Soladin

600. The Soladin 600, further mentioned as

“Soladin”, is a grid connected solar inverter, used for

the conversion and feed back into the utility grid of

the power generated by photovoltaic modules.

The Soladin is equipped with extensive safety

measures to ensure that it switches off immediately

as soon as the AC plug is removed from the wall

socket or the public grid fails in operation

The Soladin is only suitable for the feed back of

solar power into the public grid, not as a stand-alone

inverter.

Unpacking

The delivery consists of the following parts:

• The Soladin with mounting bracket

• This user’s manual

After unpacking, check the Soladin for possible

damage. Do not use the Soladin if it is damaged. If

in doubt, contact your supplier.

Safety

• Install the Soladin according to the instructions

stated in this manual.

• Be sure that the Soladin is disconnected from the

grid during installation. This can be done by

removing the AC-plug from the wall socket.

• Connections and safety features must be

executed according to the locally applicable

regulations

• The Soladin must be used in accordance with the

specifications as stated on page 30

• Never open the housing as high voltages may be

present inside!

PV modules and strings

A solar system consists of several photovoltaic

(solar) modules, further mentioned as “PV

modules”. The PV-modules are connected in series

to form a so called “string”. These strings consist of

a positive (+) and a negative (–) connection which

can be connected directly to the Soladin. The

voltages present on these strings are not safe to

touch and cannot be switched off

Therefore the solar system should meet the

following specifications:

• Maximum open circuit string voltage at lowest

possible temperature of the PV modules: 155

VDC. See table 3 for typical configurations for the

Soladin.

• Double isolated PV-wiring

• All cables of the string should have double

isolation and must be fitted with pre-assembled

MultiContact connectors (Ø4mm). Consult an

installer for the availability of such cable

assemblies. Do not assemble these yourself!

• Depending on local applicable regulations the

use of additional DC switch may be mandatory

Contact an installer if the solar-system does not

comply with the above mentioned stipulations. Due

to possible high voltages installation and

modification may only be carried out by a qualified

electrician who is familiar applicable regulations and

standards.

Things you need to install the Soladin

Make sure you have all the parts you need to install

the Soladin:

• The Soladin (included)

• Two screws (with plugs) to mount the Soladin.

Maximum diameter: 4.5 mm. Use mounting

materials which are suitable to carry the weight of

the Soladin.

• Tools to fix the screws / bolts with plugs into the

wall (screwdriver, drilling machine, a set of drills,

a pencil)

USERS MANUAL SOLADIN 600 ENGLISH

Choosing the location to install

Obey the following stipulations during installation:

• The Soladin is suited for indoor use only.

• Ambient temperature: -20 ... 50°C; (power

derating above 40°C), Humidity: 0-90% non

condensing

• Install the Soladin in the vicinity of a wall socket

• Do not install the Soladin in environments with

heavy dust development or humidity.

• If the Soladin is installed in the immediate vicinity

of living areas, take into account that it produces

a slight noise level when operating.

• Mount the Soladin vertically on a solid, non-

resonating, wall.

• Mount the Soladin in such a way that obstruction

of the airflow through the ventilation openings is

prevented

• No objects must be located within a distance of

20 cm around the Soladin.

• Multiple Soladins must be mounted next to each

other, not above each other. Minimum spacing:

20 cm.

Directions for installation

The Soladin is equipped with a so called “anti-

islanding safety device”. It ensures immediate

switch off in case of grid failure. European countries

maintain different regulations with regard to anti-

islanding devices and the supply of energy back to

the utility grid in general. Check from the part

number on the type number plate whether the

version of the Soladin is appropriate to be

connected to the local utility grid. Refer to table 1.

Never connect the Soladin to a utility grid which is

not suitable for the use of the apparatus!

In the Netherlands only one Soladin may be

connected to an existing electricity branch circuit

which is fused with 16 Amp. In other countries

different restrictions apply. Please acquaint yourself

with the local regulations on this issue.

During installation you can check by means of the

LED-indicator whether the installation is done

properly. This check can only be carried out when

sufficient irradiation is present. Installation should

therefore be carried out during daytime only.

Although the Soladin is protected against wrong

polarity, the positive (+) and negative (–) of the solar

connections should not be exchanged.

Install the product according to the instructions

stated on page 4 and 5.

Monitoring

The Soladin has a communication port that can be

connected to the COM-port (RS232) of a PC or

laptop. Use the optional “Mastervolt PC–link”

interface and cable to set up a connection.

ENGLISH USERS MANUAL SOLADIN 600

LED indicator

The operation mode of the Soladin is displayed by

means of a LED indicator at the front side of the

housing. In normal operation it flashes yellow: the

longer the LED illuminates yellow, the more power

is converted.

If the irradiation of the PV-modules is insufficient, for

instance at night, the Soladin switches off

automatically. When switched off, the LED indicator

is off.

Failures

As long as the indication LED isn’t illuminated red,

no failure is detected: the Soladin is operating

normally. If an error occurs, it is detected by the

apparatus itself: the LED indicator turns red. See

table 2.

Consult an installer, if you cannot solve the problem

by means of the table below.

NOTE: during sunrise or sunset a low Solar

voltage is detected by Soladin, indicated by

a red blinking LED indicator. This is a normal

situation

Indication of the LED Meaning What to do?

LED is off

Insufficient irradiation Nothing. The Soladin operates normally, but irradiation of the PV

modules is insufficient (for instance during night time)

LED is off

No power from the

PV modules

Consult an installer if the LED indicator is off during daytime.

The wiring between the PV modules and the Soladin might be

defective. Check for loose connections or incorrect polarity.

• • • • •

Fast blinking long red

pulses

Restart time lag Nothing. A system check is carried out during sunrise. This may take

up to 15 seconds before the Soladin starts operating normally.

Operation

After installation the Soladin will switch on

automatically if solar irradiation is sufficient. The

Soladin operates automatically: there is no need for

adjustment or operation.

The Soladin has no ON/OFF switch; remove the AC

socket from the AC-outlet to switch it off. Do not

disconnect the MultiContact plugs during operation

of the Soladin!

No specific maintenance is required. If necessary,

use a soft clean cloth to clean the Soladin. Never

use any liquids, acids and/or scourers.

Decommissioning

First remove the AC plug from the wall socket

before you disconnect the MultiContact plugs.

Now the Soladin can be demounted in a safe way:

1. Push on the lower tab of the mounting bracket to

release the mounting lock.

2. Lift the Soladin upwards for approximately 1 cm.

3. Move the Soladin straight from the wall
